Crazy month

Work has been so absolutely crazy this month I haven't even had time to really properly move in.  Every weekend I spend about two hours doing ONE project that's move related and then I do nothing for the next seven days due to lack of time.  So it feels like progress on the house is EXTREMELY slow, because it is!

After Easter we had my mom come visit and fortunately she's still with us.  My sister and her husband and son also came to visit but I didn't spend nearly as much time as I would've wanted with them mainly because of how crazy things have been at work.  Initially I wanted to fly to Cuzco with them but I ended up just spending a weekend with them and then I sort of took off their last day here so I could also spend some more time with them.  Sort of because while we were "hanging out" at the beach I was sitting there laptop in hand clicking away.  But hey at least I got that day with them.  Not to mention all the FOOD we ate!  Which of course I wish I had the time to work it all off but getting exercise in has been a futile attempt lately.  Work has taken up 100% of my time and the other 20% is spent between kids and the house.  Oh wait, that's actually 0% not 20%! Yep, that's exactly how I feel. Right now my biggest concern is whether I can keep this up for much longer, which it doesn't feel like I can! But I'm doing the best I can, taking it basically one day at a time.  We'll see how things are the next time I find a few minutes to write!  Hopefully next time I can post pictures of the new place.  Right now there are still paintings all over the floors so I feel like it's not picture worthy just yet.

Having a passport on hand means you are free to leave immediately in an emergency
situation. South America is one of the most unique, interesting, and exotic locations on Earth, and is full of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Either way, you will be asked to provide your personal information for the passport application.

Gigi's Baby Shower

Image
Even though I had barely done any planning with the exception of sending out the Evite , I did manage to pull off a very nice baby shower for Gigi. We did it at Essencha Tea House on Madison because we were too many to do it at the Bonbonerie . I got some decorations at Factory Card Outlet and recycled some other ones from Ida's baby shower last September. We had a great showing and the food at Essencha Tea House was really great. I had to bring Gabi with me because Jose had a soccer game but she did OK, even though she was a little tired because she skipped her afternoon nap. In any case, if anyone has a baby or wedding shower to plan, or just wants to go to eat at a nice place, I highly recommend Essencha Tea House . Oh, and the best part is that they serve breakfast all day, which as any friend of mine can bear witness to, is a HUGE plus for me. Speaking of which, after we got home and Gabi finally napped, we went to Boston Market followed by Graeter's . And tha

Marketing Jobs

Image
In my current job I see a lot of people undergoing job transitions and looking to expand their networks in order to improve their chances of future job placement.  Today I met a very interesting woman who had a very similar profile to mine, minus the international experience.  She wanted to talk to me given my similar profile in Marketing and see how I saw the job market these days. She seemed to think that it's harder and harder to find jobs in Marketing in Peru these days. One of the reasons? It seems that because of the economic downturn and the uncertainty about the election results (sounds just like the US, I know) companies are cutting back on Marketing budgets. Sounds familiar right? DON'T. CUT. BACK. ON. MARKETING. BUDGETS. FOLKS.  Maybe there's some fat that you can trim here and there, maybe you change your marketing vehicles in favor of more cost efficient ones like Digital (and I'm not saying you should), maybe you focus more on Trade Marketing or Price
